AI Technical Summary
The existing wire brush screens mainly use square grid steel wire mesh cloth, making it difficult to prepare screens using diamond grids, which limits the printing performance of screens.
The wire mesh cloth is treated with potion and dehydrated to loosen the mesh knot; then use a chuck to spread the wire mesh cloth and stretch the square mesh into a diamond mesh through a stretching mechanism, and adjust its angle to 3 to 45 degrees.
The deformation of the wire mesh grid is achieved, thereby preparing a screen plate using a diamond grid, which improves the narrowing and linear uniformity of the printing line width, and improves the printingability and silver paste flowability.
Abstract

[0006] Then, four clamps are used to clamp the four corners of the rectangular steel mesh cloth respectively, and the four clamps stretch the steel mesh cloth tight, and the mesh of the steel mesh cloth is a square;
[0007] Then, the two clamps at both ends of one short side of the wire mesh cloth are synchronously rotated forward, and the two clamps at both ends of the other short side of the wire mesh cloth are synchronously rotated backward, so that the mesh of the wire mesh cloth is stretched from a square to a rhombus, so that a pair of right-angled diagonals in the square mesh is stretched into a pair of acute angles in the rhombus mesh, and another pair of right-angled diagonals in the square mesh is stretched into a pair of obtuse angles in the rhombus mesh, and the angle of the pair of acute angles in the rhombus mesh reaches a predetermined angle;
[0008] Then follow the normal process to complete the subsequent plate making steps.
[0009] Preferably, the predetermined angle is 3 to 45 degrees.
[0010] Preferably, during the process of rotating the chuck, the speed of rotating the chuck forward and backward is controlled to keep the wire mesh cloth in a straight state.
[0011] The advantages and beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0012] Provided is a screen manufacturing method, which can stretch the mesh of a steel wire mesh cloth from a square to a diamond shape, thereby preparing a screen using the diamond-shaped mesh steel wire mesh cloth.
[0013] The present invention first treats the mesh with a high-concentration liquid medicine to make the mesh structure more ductile, so that the subsequent angle adjustment can have a better extension space.
[0014] The screen of the present invention can print narrower line widths, and the linear uniformity will be more stable, and the printability will be relatively improved.
[0015] The current market trend is towards narrower line widths and stable linearity, and many thick line width screens are gradually being replaced. The invention optimizes fine lines to move towards a finer area, which can enhance the quality of client printing and the linear effect brought about by the optimization.
[0016] The present invention can provide narrower and finer lines, and with the help of an inclined angle, it can improve the printability during printing, make the linearity more uniform, and have an effect of improving the fluidity of the silver paste, which can reduce the situation where the silver paste is blocked on the screen.
